The Tree of Life: Glorious New Clip, Salt in the Wound for Those Not Going to Cannes Premiere

For those of you not seeing Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Lifepremiere May 16 at the Cannes Film Festival, here is more salt to rub in the wound. EW has an exclusive clip. They say the footage “has a dreamy, remembered quality to it thanks to fluid camera movements, soft light, and jump cuts. It’s beautiful, no doubt. But what does it mean?” We say just enjoy it, and don’t ask questions. Check it out here. The Tree of Life has a limited US release May 27.

Zhao said with her Bass Reeves biopic, she’ll direct a more traditional cast like she did with her first-timers: “You can work with an actor in a certain way, you can create an environment like Terrence Malick has always done.”
